What inspired Kristin Silvestri to transition from professional soccer to fashion?
Fashion is the armor to survive the realities of everyday life. And I just always gravitate towards that because it's what makes us feel super awesome and powerful and what we put on our body, what we choose for our home, all encompassing. I want to create those unique things and I want to give people those experiences. Christina Silvestri is a fashion entrepreneur, retail boutique owner, and clothing designer known for founding the collective Park City and creating her brand armor and arrows built around her vision of modern style, creativity, and independent streetwear culture.
How do you essentially materialize your energy in this reality every day?
Really just going after your goals and dreams wholeheartedly, even if you don't feel like you're prepared. Feeling that fear and just going after it. That's been a common theme in my whole entire life. And it's gotten to me where I'm at now. Just saying yes without having all the answers.
It spans the globe like a super high school internet. Elvis Presley. Today, Apple is going to reinvent the phone. It's not over until I win. The Living Your Legacy podcast. For those who live to leave a legacy.
That's extraordinary. The impossible. Oh, that is sensational. Open. Chicago with the lead. You said Paul is the fastest man on the planet. You can live your dreams.
Welcome back to another episode of the Living Your Legacy podcast, the Women in Power edition. Joining me today is quite the owner of Own All Owners. She is the owner of the Collective Park City. Kristen, how are you?
Hi, I'm good. Thank you.
Thank you for having me. I would attempt to pronounce your last name.
Silvestri.
There you go. So that's true. I could have done that. So welcome. We're obviously full of dopamine because you literally filmed your episode for Women in Power. How do you feel?
How did Kristin navigate moving to Los Angeles without a plan?
Yes. I feel amazing. I'm so excited about this whole process about empowering women and hoping to empower other women by doing this episode.
Awesome. What will we learn in your episode? Give us a peek.
What will you learn? Really just going after your goals and dreams wholeheartedly, even if you don't feel like you're prepared. Feeling that fear and just going after it. That's been a common theme in my whole entire life. And it's gotten to me where I'm at now. Just saying yes without having all the answers and figuring it out along the way.
Well, we're doing your offline and you mentioned a lot of cool brands and names and projects you're working on. So I'm very eager to hop on that. But I really want to begin your journey back on Tatooine, back on Smallville. Where does your journey begin? I heard fear.
Oh, man. First and foremost, I was a soccer player forever. That was my first love.
So you're into theatratrics. Got it. Yeah, exactly. Carry on, continue.
Yeah, no, that was my first journey into going after what I really wanted and not really knowing... how to make it there, but knowing the end goal and where I wanted to be, I wanted to be a professional soccer player and I did it. And I just jumped after it and put my whole soul and heart into it. And that was an incredible experience. And then leaping into fashion, that was my other love and just moving to LA without a plan and no experience and no job and just figuring it out and absorbing everything I could.
Indulge me for a second. I know folks are like, you know, there's checkered players and there's chess players or Star Wars and there's Star Trek. You went after soccer. Like you mentioned passion and love for it. I want to talk there. Like what for folks that are listening and they don't quite understand, like they're all into football. They don't understand. Tell us really the artistry, the passion, the theatrics, the love. the divine energy that is soccer.
Yes. Yes. Uh, well I was, you know, fortunate enough to be put into every sport as a child and soccer was where I really thrived. I had a natural ability to it and maybe it was cause I danced forever. But, um, you know, I had this natural ability and, um, It really came to fruition watching the 96 Olympics, the women play in the Olympics.
